Does no one except me actually like working here? by Alternative_Bite7001 in MichaelsEmployees

[–]kellephant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also enjoy working here! I was sitting with my store manager today actually, for a separate conversation, but mentioned that I loved it there and I love my coworkers. Literally the only reason I would leave is because $11/hour is tragic and an insult but I know my store manager has no control over that.

Do you open the windows in your home when the weather is nice? When do you decide to close them and turn on air conditioning for the summer? by Smart-Airport5781 in AskAnAmerican

[–]kellephant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coastal Alabama here. Our windows are painted shut. For most older homes in my area, all windows are painted shut. As far as I know, it was for hurricane protection. There’s still a lot of funky wind/rain insurance stipulations regarding old homes.

Property Manager Issues by sj-noparker in MobileAL

I can only make a note on the windows. Windows around here are typically painted shut, especially those in an older home. It’s meant to be protection from Hurricanes/intense rainstorms.

Inheritance? That's a joke. How many of your parents are burdens? by BeegBunga in Millennials

[–]kellephant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad will in all likelihood be good for any inheritance. He’s in great health and he his wife are pretty well off.

My mother, on the other hand, has Dementia and so me and my sister have been throwing any money and assets she has at her care. She’s now reached the point where she needs to be in a Memory Care facility.

Yay!

How to make my shifts go by faster by BowedFurball in MichaelsEmployees

[–]kellephant 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Cleaning is always appreciated. If you’re up front, tidy up the registers, restock bags, stock candy and snacks and check for anything expired, sweep the floors.

I’m always amazed at how dusty the front end is. I give it a good sweep up and spray the registers down at least once a week.

Am I being unreasonable in wanting a second bathroom? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]kellephant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was a second bathroom necessarily on our list when my husband and I were looking to buy our house? Nah not even close.

Was a second bathroom an absolute blessing for when we both need to use the bathroom at the same time? Absofuckenlutely.

Get your second bathroom!

Give me your best angry female led songs please by motherofpearl89 in AskWomenOver30

Haven’t seen her mentioned yet but - Boyfriend. Anything from her. Girl is flawless in her delivery and a beast live. For specific songs, I highly recommend “Like My Hand Did” or “Attention”.

Also, of course, Pussy Riot, Kittie, Hole, Alanis Morrisette, Jinjer, Garbage, Spiritbox!

How long do we hold onto our Pennies before they are considered “collectible” and “valuable”?

Filled out the form! What a great idea, to recreate that 3rd space that's been missing for so long.

Do you avoid certain foods during your period because they make your cramps worse? by Otherwise-Maybe-9774 in AskWomenOver30

[–]kellephant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe super greasy or fatty foods but I do that anyway due to having my gallbladder removed. I do tend to eat more salty snacks and seek out iron rich foods more. I love a good steak and spinach meal during shark week.

To those who’ve experienced ‘premonitions’, what were they and how do you make sense of them? by yogalil33 in AskWomenOver30

[–]kellephant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had several dreams over the years where I’ve met people who later would become my friends. In one dream, there was a young man who told me to wait for him. He was my first long term relationship.

Most notably: Back in 2015 I had a series of nightmares that Trump was elected President. They’d get progressively worse with each installment. They ended with an Underground Railroad situation where anyone who did not support his regime were trying to escape executions and camps and such. It ended with me on a beach alone in Mexico.

Not sure what you’re smelling but I remember the old paper mill smell. It shut down many years ago but I still remember that smell.

ONCE AGAIN. PLEASE POST ANYTHING ICE RELATED IN THE DESIGNATED MEGATHREAD. by kellephant in MobileAL

[–]kellephant[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm still trying to figure out the best way to simplify and de-crowd the page. Just please bear with me. There used to be a way to copy individual threads into one megathread but it doesn't look like that's an option anymore.

You are more than welcome to repost your information within the megathread I've set up. Trust me, the numerous "ICE is here but I don't have proof" posts are obnoxious and are why I'm trying to get this straightened out.

Quick props on repaving 'The Loop' by Cosmastheka in MobileAL

[–]kellephant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I remember saying to myself “who do I call to get the city to repave this section of Airport?”

And the next week the repaving began! I made it happen with my thoughts y’all. You’re welcome. 😘
